Wouldn't shock me to see him get an England cap by the end of the season. He's so good. Even threw out a wild stepover towards the end!
Would have one already if he played for the rags :)

Doesn't need to he undertands the Pep full back role and has the ability to play better than any of our fulbacks under Pep have.he's been asked to play a very niche role at the moment - i think for his own development, it would be good to see him play as a more conventional RB occasionally.
Couldn't really be doing any better, he's proving brilliant and for Pep to turn to him in a big game when change was needed - what a vote of confidence. Hopefully we start playing better soon and we can see him getting forward more and attacking the box as well.
If he's going to play RB for England he'll need to show he can play in a system that doesn't have him spending 70% of the game as a defensive midfielder.
I also think he'll need to be able to go on the overlap and play the traditional role as well as the inverted role if he's going to be our starting RB long term.

if he played for rags he'd be Mr Greys first choice right backHas to be a certainty to make the next England U21 squad
Pity he is not a Lb -:)
On Football Manager he can play LB, and it's not like Pep hasn't converted much weirder players to LB before, so I wouldn't rule it out
He's a system player whose contributions help the team to function properly, as Pep's insistence on playing him clearly shows. Good that we didn't sign another, more established FB in summer. Rico is a valuable member of a great squad.

He's positive with the ball too and that's to be welcomed. Looking for a forward pass rather than the safety first approach. Very promising lad this.
